Description

Kirkton House in Drummuir is likely a mid-18th century building that may include elements from an earlier structure. The house is two stories tall and has five bays, with various 19th century additions at the rear and a single-storey, single-bay addition at the north gable. Its front is made of tooled squared granite, while the sides are constructed from harl pointed rubble. The dressings are made of tooled sandstone ashlar and contrasting tooled granite ashlar.

The central entrance is round-headed and features a Gibbsian blocked surround, with single round-headed moulded windows on either side. The window and door dressings appear to be earlier and reused. On the first floor, there are five narrow windows that are linked by contrasting dark granite cill and lintel bands, each with keystone detailing above the lintels. Each gable has a small attic window, and the south gable is flanked by a continuous two-storey, two-bay addition that forms the garden front. This addition has irregular fenestration and a projecting three-light rectangular window on the ground floor, topped with a crenellated wallhead. There is also a further two-storey rear wing.

The ground floor front windows feature multi-pane glazing, while the first floor windows have four panes. All front windows are fitted with four external shutter hooks, and there is varied glazing elsewhere. The house has coped end and ridge stacks, and its roofs are covered with slate.

Inside, the building was damaged by fire in the 19th century and has since been altered and modernised.
